SEOUL, March 24 — A zebra that escaped its pen and roamed freely for hours through the South Korean capital, captivating the internet and sparking thousands of memes, is safely back at the zoo, officials told AFP today.
Sero, aged 3, was caught using a safety fence after he entered a narrow alleyway and tranquilised, with photographs posted on social media showing him being transported, while sleeping, back to the zoo. He started behaving erratically after his parents died — his mother in 2020 and his father just last year — according to a video posted on the zoo’s YouTube channel in January.His caretakers started hand-feeding him special snacks and fruit to try and stop him from “straying,” it added — an effort that failed.
One video shows Sero walking calmly through a maze of cars waiting at a stop sign, as an eye-witness says: “Oh, he’s handsome!”“I cried after my mum said it could have been the first time for him to run in a long time,” one Twitter user wrote.
